Hi Nipsa
I recently went on a vibration measurement course run by the Health and Safety Laboratory at Buxton.
The intention of my attending the course was to help me to decide whether to buy a vibration meter for measurements of hand tools or to use existing vibration data that is available from a large number of sources.
Attendance at the course achieved my objective !!
I can be contacted on 01925 838350

Purchasing a vibration meter is probably only going to be worthwhile if you are continually assessing employees whilst using vibration induced tools/equipment.

If it is for short duration work one offs/once per year, etc assessments then perhaps be more cost effective hiring the equipment.

Try Castle, based in Scarborough!
